A Revealing documentary about the most promising treatment modality for drug dependance available.

Das Walliser Kantonsgericht hat es abgelehnt, den Prozess gegen Hanfbauer Bernard Rappaz nochmals aufzurollen. Das teilte am Donnerstag auf Anfrage Rappaz' Anwalt Aba Neeman mit. Rappaz, der inzwischen wieder im Gefängnis ist, verweigert erneut die Nahrungs- und Getränkeaufnahme.

Wegen schweren Verstosses gegen das Betäubungsmittelgesetz war Rappaz im November 2008 vom Kantonsgericht zu fünf Jahren und acht Monaten Gefängnis verurteilt worden. Im März dieses Jahres trat er seine Strafe an, begann aber einen Hungerstreik. Aus medizinischen Gründen wurde die Strafe im Mai vorübergehend ausgesetzt.

Spaniens Parlament erstellte einen “Rekord-Sparplan“. Aber wann ist Deutschland dran, mit dem Einsparen? Gleich vorab ein Vorschlag: Fangen wir doch mal mit der unsinnigen und menschenverachtenden Verfolgung von Drogenstraftaten an. Mit der “Zaubersteuer” kommt sogar noch etwas Geld ‘rein.
